Stuffed Quinoa Peppers

I have been away for past few weeks. My son recently got married and I was busy with preparation …. fun time making so many sweets at home ( recipes coming shortly…lol). I had family over and it was the best time of my life! When they were here, few of our friends invited us for dinner. One of our cousin prepared all Mexican dishes for us. One of the appetizer was this sweet bell pepper stuffed with quinoa and we all absolutely loved it!! I decided to prepare it next time when I get the small sweet peppers. Recently, I picked it up and gave it a try. It was so delicious that I prepared it twice already. My family loved it!

This is gluten-free and vegan recipe. If you are not eating garlic then avoid adding it.
This dish is very healthy as I have used less than 1 tbsp oil in cooking. Quinoa and peanuts are very high in protein.

5. Heat less than 1 tbsp oil in a pan. Slowly add stuffed chilies. Cook on low on all sides. Cover the lid while cooking. It will take less than 5 minutes to get the slightly brown marks on all sides.

6. Serve it when hot. You can prepare stuff chilies ahead of time and cook it before serving. These chilies are so flavourful as it has flavour of coconut, roasted peanuts and cumin powder. You can serve it as a side dish during lunch or dinner or serve it as a starter/appetizer.

I am sure you will be happy that you tried this dish as I did! Share it with your family and friends.

Also let me know if you have any questions regarding the dish.

Thank you for visiting my blog. Until next time!
